The HOPE study: Examining the variation in SEN provision and its impact on childhood outcomes in England

Speakers: The HOPE team

One-third of children in England have special educational needs (SEN) provision recorded during their school career. The proportion of children with SEN provision varies between schools and demographic groups, which may reflect variation in need, inequitable provision and/or systemic factors. Part of the HOPE study uses the ECHILD database to explore the variation and impact of SEN provision. Our approach informs the interpretation of findings for policy, practice and families and methods for future evaluation.
